My Mission

At Global Roads my mission is to plan your trip around your specific interests, tastes and preferences, providing helpful tips and honest advice so you experience an authentic unforgettable holiday.

Fewer Clients
Richer Experiences

Global Roads is a boutique niche travel planning service that’s part of the Emerald Escapes Travel Group. Created out of a love of travelling deeper and more connected, the philosophy is a trip’s most valued moments aren’t the most expensive or grand, but the ones where something can be learned, shared, and experienced.

Unlike most travel companies, I intentionally work with fewer travelers. This lets me take an extraordinarily personalized approach when it comes to YOUR journey. I work for you and not any one travel provider.

If you’re as obsessed with the details as I am, and are looking for a more authentic travel experience, chances are we’ll be a good fit.

Travel on a journey made just for YOU!

Maureen Thompson,
CTC

Hi, I’m Maureen Thompson, owner of Global Roads, and I design tailor-made itineraries for travelers who want to experience destinations on a deeper level. I build trips that will connect you to the people, places and cultures that will give you a transformative travel experience that will stay with you a lifetime.

With over 10+ in the travel industry and years of personal solo travel to countries around the globe I wanted to take what I’ve learned piecing together unique holidays for myself and share it with like minded travellers.

And for any women looking to venture off on a their first solo adventure I have you covered. The majority of my travels have been solo and I can help encourage you and minimize any fears you may have about going on your own.

Whether that’s spending a day at a Stonetown, Zanzibar design studio learning the art of Bakit, a sailing adventure around the cayes of Belize, riding a camel to a luxurious desert camp in the Moroccan Sahara, or being sung to by the children of a Tanzania elementary school, all were experiences I personally created and experience for myself and now I want to do the same for you.

I draw on my deep travel experience and industry connections to create authentic travel itineraries that will take you to the heart and soul of a destination. If you’re ready for a travel experience that is out-side the ordinary, then let Global Roads plan your next getaway right down to the very last detail.
